After a long time since I last attempted such, I've been working with my TRS-80 emulator to produce real disks from .dsk images. I then checked my work with my very real green-screen Model 4 with updated keyboard. My first project is to create an LS-DOS 6.3.1 boot disk with Shell20 as an IEC just like my 6.3.0 disk. I had to borrow an older computer as my AMD K6-2 300Mhz machine's floppy controller was incompatible. I installed a TEAC FD-55 drive which works well. Unfortunately, while testing my disks, one of my external double-sided drives went south. I did have a spare! RLE
 
Iv'e been trying to do this also, and have tried many 5.25 drives and free programs found at Ira Goldklangs site to no avail.
I haven't yet spent the $45.00 for David Keil's program,
I would very much like to use the downloaded programs I have for my model 4's
Maybe you could enlighten me??
Thanks
